Ingredients

  • 1 lb (.5 kg). ground beef
  • 1 med. onion, chopped
  • 2 cans red enchilada sauce
  • 1 can refried beans
  • 4 cups (950 ml) (approximately) shredded cheese - cheddar, monterey jack or combination
  • 8 to 10 corn tortillas
  • oil
  • lettuce, sour cream, tomatoes, jalapenos - whatever you like on yours!

Directions

  1. 1
    Heat 2 tbsp (30 ml).
  2. 2
    oil in large skillet and cook onions and ground beef.
  3. 3
    While that's cooking, combine the enchilada sauce and refried beans in a sauce pan and heat gently, stirring together to mix.
  4. 4
    After beef is browned and onions are softened, add about 1/2 enchilada sauce mixture to beef, not too saucy, so perhaps less than half - you decide.
  5. 5
    Soften a corn tortilla in some hot oil, and put in a handful of cheese, and top with a couple spoonfuls of beef mixture.
  6. 6
    Roll up and place in a lightly greased 9 x 13 inch baking dish.
  7. 7
    Repeat this process with remaining tortillas, beef and cheese, but save two to three cups of cheese for topping.
  8. 8
    After all the enchiladas are rolled and fit into dish, pour the remaining portion of enchilada sauce-refried bean mixture all over; sprinkle with two to three cups of cheese.
  9. 9
    Bake at 350 degrees (175 C.) for 25-30 min.
